Hi! I am looking to get back into babysitting to help support myself through Physician Assistant School at Hofstra University. While studying Molecular Biology at Colgate University for undergrad, I also led a club offering after school care/activities for 4th and 5th graders at the local school. After graduating in 2022, I began working as a medical assistant at pediatric office, where I gained experience treating children for the last year. My favorite part of my job was interacting with kids of all ages, so I am really excited about getting back into baby sitting! Making the kids comfortable in the office and helping them feel better has been so rewarding, so I am looking forward to giving the same care to your children. In my free time I love being with my family and friends, going to the beach, and exercising. Please reach out if you’d like to know more about me, I would love to chat!

First, let me tell you a little about myself, I'm currently in college majoring in Hospitality Management. I love kids and have babysat kids around my neighborhood but not as a paid job. I have a balance between safety and fun that will cater to the needs of the parents as well as the child. I was certified in First Aid CPR from the American Red Cross. Plus, I'm a great cook as I am studying it in college as well as being knowledgeable about the safety of food and food allergies. I also love animals, I actually thought of being a vet because of my love for them. I currently have two cats and two fishes. And plan to have more pets in the future. I love being able to be a good older role model to children as they mature by showing children that it is okay to have fun as long as you are being safe. I can be assertive in this manner while allowing them to fight boredom in playing games, watching television, making cookies; of course all after their homework is complete. So, I am eager to tend to all your babysitting needs.

My name is Chevon Derrick, and I’m a dedicated and experienced nanny with over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience. I’m currently a student at Hunter College studying Nutrition and Food Science, and I bring a strong background in both individual and group child care to every family I work with. I began working with children at age 17 with a summer job at a large after-school center in Brooklyn. That experience sparked my passion for caregiving and led me to become a nanny in 2014. Since then, I’ve cared for children ranging from 6 months to 15 years old across New York City—offering structure, creativity, and loving support. In March 2015, I began working with two wonderful girls (ages 10 and 11), picking them up from school, taking them to tutoring and dance lessons, and helping with homework and school projects. Later that same year, I started caring for two more girls (ages 7 and 9). Currently, I work with a bright and energetic 5-year-old boy. Our days are filled with learning through play, curiosity, and lots of creativity—this role has further deepened my passion for early childhood development. In addition to private nannying, I’ve worked at daycares and at Friends of Crown Heights, where I supported classrooms, supervised trips, and helped children build academic skills like reading and writing. I’ve also helped children complete summer reading assignments, school projects, and navigate social development through hands-on play and exploration. Coming from a large Caribbean family, I’ve helped raise many younger cousins—an experience that taught me patience, leadership, and the joy of watching children grow. While I’m an only child, I’ve always had a caregiver’s heart. I love incorporating my passion for cooking and baking into childcare, whether it’s preparing meals, grocery shopping together, or baking something fun as a bonding activity. I also drive and have my own vehicle, which makes transportation and outings reliable and stress-free. If you’re looking for a dependable, nurturing, and creative caregiver who brings a decade of experience and a whole lot of heart, I’d love to support your family.
